Product Information

Full details

The Fox Fork Low Friction Dust Wiper Kit (803-00-944) is designed for mountain bike enthusiasts and riders looking to maintain peak suspension performance through routine service. By providing a tight seal against dirt and debris while minimizing stiction, this kit helps restore the plush, responsive feel of premium Factory Series forks. A key caveat for users is that these are flangeless seals and are not compatible with older fork models that require flanged-style seals, and they necessitate a specific seal driver tool for safe installation.

FAQs

How often should I replace these seals?

Fox recommends replacing these seals every 125 hours of riding or at least once per year.

Can I use a hammer to install these?

Never hammer the seals directly. You must use a proper seal driver tool to ensure the force is applied evenly and the seal is not deformed.

Are these compatible with my 34mm or 38mm fork?

This specific part number (803-00-944) is designed for specific models; check the part number against your fork's manual or serial number, as Fox produces different kits for 34mm and 38mm platforms.

What does 'flangeless' mean?

Flangeless seals do not have a prominent lip that sits on top of the fork lower's seal seat; they sit flush with the top of the lower leg.

Do I need special tools for this job?

Yes, you will need a seal driver matching your fork stanchion diameter, a plastic pry tool, and appropriate suspension oil.

Troubleshooting

Seal will not press in flush

Ensure you are using the correct seal driver tool and that the seat is completely free of old debris or dried residue.

Oil leaking around the seal after install

Verify the seal is oriented correctly and was not damaged during the pressing process. Check that the fork stanchions are not scratched.

Fork feels harsh after replacement

Check that the correct amount and weight of suspension oil were used during reassembly; ensure there is no residual grease impeding movement.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Reduces stiction for improved suspension sensitivity
  • Uses high-quality materials identical to Factory Series components
  • Extends the lifespan of fork internals by keeping contaminants out
  • Easy to incorporate into standard suspension service schedules

Cons

  • Not compatible with older flanged-style fork lowers
  • Requires a specific seal driver tool for proper seating
  • Installation requires moderate mechanical skill to avoid damaging seals

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Before purchasing, verify your fork's compatibility. This kit is specifically for models using flangeless seals. Using these in a fork designed for flanged seals can result in improper fitment and potential failure.

Installation Steps:

  1. Safely depressurize the fork and remove the lower legs.
  2. Carefully pry out the old seals using a non-marring tool.
  3. Thoroughly clean the seal seats inside the lowers.
  4. Use a dedicated seal driver tool to press the new flangeless seals into the lowers until they are perfectly flush.
  5. Reassemble with fresh suspension fluid as specified by the Fox maintenance guide for your specific fork model.

Care: Always avoid using harsh degreasers near the seals, as these can dry out the rubber. Use only mild soap and water to clean the area around the wipers.
